Application of a semi-dependent latent model in the Bayesian estimation of the sensitivity and specificity of two faecal culture methods for diagnosis of paratuberculosis in sub-clinically infected Greek dairy sheep and goats
Kostoulas, P.; Leontides, L.; Billinis, C.; Florou, M. (2006)In this study, we compared the frequency of isolation of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) from faecal samples grown on Herrold's egg-yolk medium (HEYM) or on Lowenstein-Jensen (LJ) medium and estimated the ... -
The association of sub-clinical paratuberculosis with the fertility of Greek dairy ewes and goats varies with parity
Kostoulas, P.; Leontides, L.; Billinis, C.; Amiridis, G. S.; Florou, M. (2006)Our cross-sectional study investigated the association of sub-clinical Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) infection with failing to produce a live offspring the season of lambing/kidding (November 2001 to ... -
Bayesian estimation of sensitivity and specificity of serum ELISA and faecal culture for diagnosis of paratuberculosis in Greek dairy sheep and goats
Kostoulas, P.; Leontides, L.; Enoe, C.; Billinis, C.; Florou, M.; Sofia, M. (2006)Latent class models were used to estimate the sensitivity (Se) and the specificity (Sp) of a serum ELISA and a faecal culture (FC) method for the diagnosis of paratuberculosis separately, in sheep and goats. The estimates ... -

Isolation of Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis from non-ruminant wildlife living in the sheds and on the pastures of Greek sheep and goats
Florou, M.; Leontides, L.; Kostoulas, P.; Billinis, C.; Sofia, M.; Kyriazakis, I.; Lykotrafitis, F. (2008)This study aimed to: (1) investigate whether non-ruminant wildlife interfacing with dairy sheep and goats of four Greek flocks endemically infected with Mycobaclerium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) harboured MAP ... -
Strain-Specific Sensitivity Estimates of Mycobacterium avium subsp paratuberculosis Culture in Greek Sheep and Goats
Florou, M.; Leontides, L.; Kostoulas, P.; Billinis, C.; Sofia, M. (2009)The requirements for the isolation of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (Map) may be related to the strain-type [sheep (S)- or cattle (C)-type] and not to the host. The objective of this paper was to estimate and ...
